Austin Meadows, Brandon Lowe and Randy Arozarena homered, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Chicago White Sox 5-2 on Monday night for their fourth straight win.

Tampa Bay improved to 43-24, 1 1/2 games ahead of the White Sox for the best record in the majors. The Rays have won seven of eight.

Tampa Bay starter Tyler Glasnow left after four innings with right elbow inflammation. The 6-foot-8 right-hander allowed two runs on three hits, walked one and struck out six, throwing 40 of 53 pitches for strikes.

Tim Anderson had two hits and Brian Goodwin added an RBI single for the White Sox, whose four-game winning streak ended.

Four Tampa Bay relievers - Thompson, J.P. Feyereisen (3-2), Diego Castillo and Pete Fairbanks - followed with five scoreless innings of two-hit ball. Fairbanks pitched a perfect ninth for his third save.

The Rays' bullpen, which tossed seven no-hit innings in a win over Baltimore on Sunday, entered with an AL-best 3.05 ERA.

Lance Lynn (7-2) allowed three runs on six hits in six innings as he lost for the first time since April 15.

Lynn allowed as many as three runs for only the second time in 12 starts. 

Meadows and Lowe both went deep on 1-0 pitches against Lynn.

Meadows, who entered in a 1-for-17 slump, lofted Lynn's sinker deep to right in the first inning for his team-leading 15th homer.

Lowe turned on a cutter in the third, driving the ball just inside the right-field foul pole for his 12th homer and a 3-0 lead.

The White Sox cut it to 3-2 in the bottom half. Leury Garcia scored from third on a wild pitch. Anderson, who had doubled, came home on Goodwin's single.

Arozarena made it 4-2 in the eighth off Garrett Crochet with his second homer in two games. Brett Phillips drove in a run with an infield single in the ninth.
